With USB 3.0 delivering ten times the data transfer rates of USB 2.0 and Apple a major proponent of Firewire apparently stepping away from the technology, are we seeing the slow death of Fireware?
USB 3.0 to Deliver a Tenfold Speed Increase
Tighten your seat belts. Data transfer is going into overdrive as the ubiquitous Universal Serial Bus, better known as USB, prepares to make a tenfold jump in speed.
That means the vast sea of USB devices — from HD camcorders to hard drives and music players — will be able to transfer music, video, photos and other data much, much more quickly.
The new standard, the first update to the USB specification in eight years, will also deliver greater power efficiency and the ability to recharge a wider variety of gadgets — and it will most likely mean the death of the competing standard known as FireWire.
